My Friend, Dee

by Michael


In a year
of fading dreams
and crippled hopes
she remains steadfast.

This friend
of accent,
lovely words
and
great wisdom
for
such youth.

Selfless,
honest,
with no pretense,
she greets
my teasing ways.

She is the sweetness
of
Springtime scents
and
brings much joy
to my days.

Thank you for your
precious friendship.

I love you, Dee
